Alright ladies and gents. First canyon Ive ever had. First 4 months not a problem one. Then one week I went outta town for work....came backk to find my bsttery dead. No big deal a terminal was broke so got a new battery etc. Id say a month and a half later I go to start my truck acts like its dead again. I checked my cables one was kinda loose,tightened it jumped it once again all is good. Untill two days ago. Again go to start the truck acts dead jumped it and so far its hasnt "died" again. Anyone know whats going on?

Due to having a bad connection it could have done damage to the battery. I'd recommend having it load tested.. This will charge and test each cell checking for stability and bad cells.

These trucks are extremely sensitive to voltage changes from your battery so I'd also suggest starting there.
yeah clean or replace your cables i had this happen to me for weeks until i replaced my negative cable
